Writings of a teachermom, choosing to stay home with
her kids, while loathing all domestic responsibilities! In late Aug. 2008, I was diagnosed with Triple Negative breast cancer. After surgery, chemo and radiation, I was given theall clear. However, in the late summer of 2008, I was diagnosed with a brain tumor, which metasticized to other areas.

Unmanageable Mane

My husband was feeling my stomach last night as we were watching Desperate Housewives. "You're contracting...do you feel that?""Yeah, I feel that all the time."He laughed and said, "Cari, you're not going to make it to the 13th." That was my original goal...the day after my grad class was over..so I wouldn't miss any..and my grade wouldn't be penalized.

But now, my new goal is to make it past this Wednesday. Why this day? Well, because I have a hair appointment. I need a highlight so bad...my roots are quite pathetic...and my ends are split into total frizz. It would be most upseting if I didn't get my hair done before I deliver. Because once the baby comes, it will probably be another couple months before I'd be able to have someone watch her so I could go to my appointment.

I can't imagine looking at myself in the mirror for another 2 months with hair as bad as mine. It's enough to incite Post-Pardum depression.

And on a different note....Max was up last night at 1:30, 2:30 and 3:30. Is he trying to prepare me for my nights with Ella?
